We develop a large-scale regularity theory of higher order for divergence-form elliptic equations with heterogeneous coefficient fields a in the context of stochastic homogenization. The large-scale regularity of a-harmonic functions is encoded by Liouville principles: The space of a-harmonic functions that grow at most like a polynomial of degree k has the same dimension as in the constant-coe...

The harmonic index H(G) , of a graph G is defined as the sum of weights 2/(deg(u)+deg(v)) of all edges in E(G), where deg (u) denotes the degree of a vertex u in V(G). In this paper we define the harmonic polynomial of G. We present explicit formula for the values of harmonic polynomial for several families of specific graphs and we find the lower and upper bound for harmonic index in Caterpill...

We investigate nonequilibrium underdamped Langevin dynamics of Brownian particles that interact through a harmonic potential with coupling constant K and are in thermal contact with two heat baths at different temperatures. The system is characterized by a net heat flow and an entropy production in the steady state. We compare the entropy production of the harmonic system with that of Brownian ...

High harmonic generation in gases is developing rapidly as a soft X-ray femtosecond light-source for applications. This requires control over all the harmonics characteristics and in particular, spatial properties have to be kept very good. In previous literature, measurements have always included several harmonics contrary to applications, especially spectroscopic applications, which usually r...

‎In this paper‎, ‎we study the convex combinations of harmonic mappings obtained by shearing a class of slit conformal mappings‎. ‎Sufficient conditions for the convex combinations of harmonic mappings of this family to be univalent and convex in the horizontal direction are derived‎. ‎Several examples of univalent harmonic mappings constructed by using these methods are presented to illustrate...

we study the notion of harmonicity in the sense of symplectic geometry, and investigate the geometric properties of harmonic thom forms and distributional thom currents, dual to different types of submanifolds. we show that the harmonic thom form associated to a symplectic submanifold is nowhere vanishing. we also construct symplectic smoothing operators which preserve the harmonicity of distri...

In this paper, we propose an adaptive fixed code-excited linear prediction (AF-CELP) speech coder operating at 4 kbps. By exploiting the fact that a fixed codebook contribution to speech signal is also periodic as the corresponding adaptive codebook contribution, the adaptive fixed codebook model efficiently represents excitation signals. In order to overcome the quality degradation caused by t...

Harmonic generation by an atom in a laser field is described by the three-step mechanism as proceeding via above-threshold ionization (ATI) followed by the electron propagation in the laser-dressed continuum and the subsequent laser assisted recombination (LAR). An amplitude of harmonic production is given by the coherent sum of contributions from different intermediate ATI channels labeled by ...

In his Presidential Address to the European Economic Association, Tony Atkinson introduced the idea of a “Charitable Conservatism” position in public policy, which “exhibits a degree of concern for the poor, but this is the limit of the redistributional concern and there is indifference with respect to transfers above the poverty line.” This contrasts with the perspective of poverty indices, wh...
